The Billionaire’s Regret: Chasing His Ex wife Chapter 84
Amelia This time, he took his eyes off mine for a while. I already began to regret asking him what had happened at work. I hadn’t even well ingested the fact that my father came looking for me. Now I had to deal with another dinner? I still couldn’t get over the drama that happened the last time, and now I was looking forward to another?I exhaled in frustration. I wasn’t going to go this time. I didn’t even care whatever happened because of that. I wasn’t ready to deal with his family yet. Not now.“I’m not going.” I said looking away. He snapped his head to look at me.“Amelia….” He called gently. “No Lach! I’m serious. I’m not going there. Not now. Not after the stunt we pulled there the last time.”“The more reason why we should go now, babe. I want it to be well registered with everyone that you are the one I want to be with. And I need them to accept that fact.” He explained, interrupting me immediately. “And what about what I want, Lach? That ever crossed your mind?” I asked

LachlanI walked through the boutique with Lillian. I needed to get something stunning for my wife. I knew she always looked stunning, but I needed her to have Lachlan’s touch tonight as we went out for dinner. So I went along with her stylist to the boutique without her knowledge. I took delight in surprising her and watching her face light up. We have been walking through the boutique for a while but haven’t come across anything impressive to me. Lillian did see things she felt her madam would like, but I wanted a difference with the regular.Of course they were stunning. Of course they were mind-blowing. But I wanted something beyond that that would still match her taste. And so we had almost walked through the boutique without finding what we wanted until I came across a deep blue bodycon. I asked Lillian to check it out, and she was also amazed and admitted it would look gorgeous on Amelia. I smiled.We picked some earrings, jewellery, and shoes to match the dress, and after the

Amelia “You look ravishing, ma’am.” Lillian said as he gazed into the mirror with me. I was teary, but I knew Lillian would frown at her efforts being soiled. So I fought hard to keep the tears from falling. But I was mesmerized. I wondered how this could ever be me. The gown was a little bit above my knee, having all my curves and body silhouette accentuated.The sleeves were transparent, as was the belly side of the dress, making my baby bump evident but beautiful. I loved the fact that it wasn’t revealing but enticing. It made me look different in a nice way.And of course, Lillian made my face up to fit the astonishing outfit and styled my hair into a bunny wavy style that was so unique. With my deep blue heels I had on, I looked stunning. “Thank you, Lillian.” I said, turning around to address her. She nodded her head and slightly bow. She was so loyal and genuine.I picked up my jewelry. I wanted Lachlan to fix them for me. I didn’t know why, but I felt the urge to let him do

Lachlan “What?!” I asked in surprise when everyone’s eyes seemed piercing to me. It’s not like I said anything wrong. I was busy with my wife. Was that a bad thing? Amelia cleared her throat.“We apologise for coming late.” She said, with a forced smile.“You had better!” Mum said rudely, and I fumed. “And what does that even mean, Mom?” I asked. Amelia held my hands, but I wasn’t going to let this slide.“I know she’s the major reason you are late. You’ve never been late to dinners.” She said, and I burst into laughter.“How ironic! If you must know, Amelia is the reason we are even here earlier than I wanted. Trust me, mom, if it were left to me, with all I wanted to...”“I think we should eat. Please.” Amelia cut in, and I sighed. I and Mom exchanged glances while Nina called the servants to come serve us. I didn’t take my eyes off Mom until I felt Amelia’s cold hands on mine again.The food was served, and soon everyone began digging into their food. As we were eating, I took a

Christopher My arms ached as I slammed the car door. Arrgh! I regretted not being allowed to take my pound of flesh on Lachlan for treating me this way. Damn! I just couldn’t resist anymore. Her body silhouette beautifully accentuated me, and just like always, I couldn’t resist. Well, even Lachlan couldn’t. Which was why they were late. And yes, I knew I had overstepped my boundaries. But it didn’t give him the bloody right to beat me into a pulp. Only if I could finally kill him. Only if that nincompoop would finally join hands with me. Arrgh!As I walked into the house, slammed my door, and put on the light, I was dazed at the person seated on the couch. What the…“How...how did you get in?” I stuttered in shock, and she laughed at me.“What a mess you are. Come, let me clean you up.” She said, opening the first aid box she had gotten already. When did this witch get into this house in the first place?She tapped on the space beside her. “Come, sir, quickly. My patience is alread

Amelia I had turned my gaze to the food to continue eating. Thankfully, I hadn’t lost my appetite. Probably that was because two people ate this time rather than just me. But still I continued eating, throwing occasional glances at my husband, who just kept playing with the food with his cutlery. We didn’t say a word for a while. I couldn’t even tell what was happening anymore. All I knew was that I had seen my husband mercilessly throwing punches at his brother until I pulled him away. It was scary. I had never seen Lachlan that furious. He had murder gaze, and I knew this would only worsen beyond our control if he’s not stopped and I would have taken some punches if not for the fact that I was pregnant and also had value since I returned back to him. He would have accused me of seducing his brother. Now, reserve is the case.I began feeling bad that it was on my account this chaos happened. But then, it wasn’t my fault; Chris just had to be such a filthy pervert. It made me rememb

Lachlan I stretched my arms, yawning as I opened my eyes. I ran my hands over my face before letting my eyes fall on her. Gosh, she was so cute. I could barely take my eyes off her. And then gradually, my mind slipped into the events that had transpired the previous day.I didn’t think I was going to get over what Chris had done to her. It was the highest form of irritation for me. I badly felt like beating him into a pulp if possible, rendering that thing between his legs that he seems unable to control, temporarily incapacitated. This wasn’t the first time I had seen him flirt with my girls. But going that far with Amelia, like actually touching her legs, I just couldn’t condone such audacity. The nerve he had to actually touch my wife. If only Amelia and Mom had let me, oh, what a mess I would have made of him.I got the more aggravated when Amelia began questioning my moves with him, asking me ridiculous questions. But she wasn’t the enemy, and so I decided to pay her less atten

Cassandra I sat in my car, tears streaming down my face, my head placed on the steering wheel, as I let my mind run through the events that had transpired. I needed help. I couldn’t win Lachlan on my own. I had tried everything possible, but he just wouldn’t bulge. These were one of the times I regretted dating a disciplined man. Lachlan was just too disciplined for my liking.So all along, he had known. I felt so ashamed of myself. It was going to be really tough getting him back. He definitely wasn't going to leave his proper wife for a cheat like me. Recalling the events that had transpired with his wife yesterday, I knew I stood no chance.I had just finished with that old man, and I needed to just feel good after that torture. So I decided to go see Chris. Then Nina called to tell me what had transpired and, of course, to stir me up. I had decided to treat Chris’s wounds when he returned. I didn't actually know why, but I did it anyway. And I was shocked that all along, Lachlan

Lachlan's POVI couldn't handle Amelia rejecting me again. The moment I went home, I went straight to my bedroom and began to pack my bags. Maybe, space was what she needed from me. I was done packing and kept my box at the side. In the morning, I would leave for Japan. I had already informed my pilot. The jet was ready and so was everyone. After that, I sat in the bar in the living room, drinking some water. I didn't have the stomach for any more alcohol. I finished and kept down the glass. Almost immediately, I heard the sound of a driving vehicle. I wasn't expecting any guests and the guards knew better than to let anyone into the compound without informing me. I rose to my feet and waited. Just who was here?A soft knock in the door tore through the air and I froze.Was it mom? Nina? Dad?I made a beeline for the door and held it open. Standing before me was the person I expected to show up at my doorstep — Amelia. “Amelia, what are you—”Without a word, she pressed her lips

Amelia's POVI scrolled through my phone, wondering if I should call Lachlan.A part of me wanted to, while the other half told me it was a terrible idea.I sat up on the couch and chewed on my lip. It was late, and here I was, thinking about someone who was probably not thinking about me. I had rejected him most horribly. I'm pretty sure he hates me, and I'm pretty sure he's out drinking and laughing and living while I sit here, questioning every decision I have ever made.I searched for Lachlan in my message app, and I stared at the screen. “Do I apologize for what I did, or should I do it in person?”My finger hovered over the keyboard, and I typed. “I'm sorry.”Then I went to the emoji icon, looking for a sad emoji. I settled for the faceless emoji, but instead of sending it, I sent a kiss emoji.Just like that, I sent it. “No, no, no, no!”Before I could delete it, he had already read it. My phone dropped to my lap and I nearly screamed.Lachlan's POVI arrived with a dry look

Lachlan's POVThe next day, I decided to pretend nothing unusual happened in New York. But every time an employee asked how my vacation was, my mind drifted back to Amelia's rejection, and when that happened, I thought about her.I couldn't focus during meetings. I zoned out on more than one occasion, imagining endless possibilities of Amelia accepting me. One time I imagined I had never treated Amelia horribly in the past and that we were very happy. But rewinding time was impossible.“Sir… Sir!” Clara said it aloud.I blinked twice and looked at her and the sea of confused faces in the conference room.Shit. I zoned out. It was clear from the looks on their faces that they were worried about me. One more second in this room and they'll drown me in questions.I cleared my throat and reached for my phone on the table. The time was a few minutes past 4.“The meeting is adjourned to next Friday.” I pushed back my seat and walked out of the room. I took the elevator to the parking lot

Lachlan's POVThe work came crashing down around me. The kiss… The “Yes”... The happily ever after… Everything was a fantasy… A cruel trick the mind played on me.She turned to leave, but I couldn't call out to her or beg her to stay. I couldn't even move or speak. The ring was still clutched in my hand, and my heart was bleeding deep inside.I looked behind me as she walked away, not even stopping to even stare at me. I wanted to scream for her to stay with me, but she didn't.I rose to my feet and pocketed the ring, feeling absolutely dejected and somewhat dead on the inside.I followed the path she took, walking slowly behind her. “Amelia…”She didn't answer.“Amelia, please…” I whispered again, but she didn't stop.I couldn't let her go home like this. I ran up to catch up with her and caught her wrist. “Amelia!” I believe I raised my voice because almost everyone was staring at us.She passed, but she didn't look at me, but I could feel her hand tremble in mine.God, what the h

Lachlan's POVI ordered room service, and we ate breakfast in silence.As we ate, I couldn't stop myself from staring at Amelia. She looked twice as beautiful as she was before.She finally broke the silence. “Umm… You're looking the wrong way, Lachlan. The food is on the plate.”“Well, that's not the food I see.” I flashed her a grin, and her cheeks turned red. She gave a nervous laugh. “Wow. So funny.”When I saw that she was embarrassed to leave, I pushed back my chair. “Maybe we could go home today!” Amelia announced aloud, forcing me to resume my seat.“You want to go home?” I asked, sitting down. “Yeah…” She looked everywhere except my face. “We… we could just go home, you know…Uh… unwind… Forget about everything for a while.” “My face is up here, darling.” I told her.Amelia lifted her eyes to meet mine, and I smiled. “I thought of that too.”“You did?” She asked in surprise, and now I had the irresistible urge to kiss her.“Y—yeah.” I fisted my left hand, restraining mysel

Amelia's POVThe smell of food interrupted the dream I was having, and I stirred awake.I rubbed my eyes and sat up only to see Lachlan walking towards the bed with a tray of food. My heart skipped a beat. “Lachlan?”“Morning, beautiful.” He set down the tray next to me and plopped down on the bed next to me. I noticed a white flower and note ona the tray. The family sight made my heart flutter. Ife just like before. He still hasn't forgotten. “You did all this for me?”“Yeah. Do you like it?” Lachlan asked, tucking a stray hair behind my ears.“Like it?” It had been so long since he'd done something like this. I was surprised and happy all at once. I smiled and blushed. “I love it.”I picked up the note and read it. Warmth rushed through me, and my cheeks were flushed with heat. I had missed this too, a,nd I'm sure he had too.I, had even forgotten last night's little “argument.”“Thank you, Lachlan.” I beamed him a smile, and he palmed the back of his neck.His cheeks were red, a

Lachlan's POVMy mind keeps drifting to when Amelia hid the bag from me. Clearly, there was someone else. Someone else she clearly didn't tell me about. Well, why would she? She's an adult and has every right to do whatever she wants. I heaved another sigh and reached for the 5th glass of tequila shots. These shots soothe me more than any therapist I've ever been to.As I brought the alcohol to my lips, I heard a familiar voice behind me.“Ah, I see you escaped too.” said the voice.I looked around and found him—Duke. What was she doing here?He walked up to me and gave me a nod. “I didn't know you drank alone.”I refocused my gaze on the tequila shot, suddenly feeling too ashamed to drink, so I used it in my hand instead.Duke plopped on a stool beside me. “Well, I want to let you know that you have my gratitude.”I looked at him, puzzled. “Gratitude?”“Well, yeah.” Duke tossed a dollar bill on the counter, and the barman passed him a bottle of wine and a champagne glass. I guess he

Amelia's POVI was about to down my fourth glass of wine before Lachlan took it from me.“We don't want you drunk before dinner, do we?” He whispered gently in my ear, and I giggled.My head felt heavy, and the room was spinning. “Oh.”I felt Lachlan's arm around my waist, and he pulled me close to him.“Careful or you'll miss your step.” Lachlan whispered behind my ears, and I felt my toes squirm in my heels.“Oh.”“The champagne here is amazing.” I heard the Duke say this to his wife.Then Lachlan let go of me. I wanted his hand around me again.Before I could call for him, Eloise took my hand. “Amelia, you have a secret, don't you?”I sobered up immediately when I heard that. “S—secret?”Then I turned to Lachlan. Did he tell them that we were divorced?“Yes,” Eloise smiled. “You just tell me. What's your secret… to stay so young?”“What?” I was stunned.“Yeah.” Then she gave my arm to Lachlan. “Don't you feel how smooth it is?”“It is,” Lachlan smiled. “She takes care of herself.”

Amelia's POVWhen Lachlan left the house, I felt a bit disappointed. I had wanted him to stay. “Are you okay, Amelia?” I felt Rebecca’s hand on my arm, and I flinched.“Yes, of course.” I shot her a smile.“No, are you hearing the baby? He's crying.” She said with alarm.“What?” I yelled.That was when I heard it—a faint cry coming from upstairs. “Oh shit,” I bolted upstairs. “Thank you, Rebecca.”I raced upstairs to the nursery, where I found Bailey cradling the baby in her arms. “Where have you been?” She mouthed to me. “Downstairs.” I mouthed back. “My mind took a little detour.”She rolled her eyes and shooed me away from the room.I walked downstairs and slumped on the couch.“Are you okay?” Rebecca looked up from her phone. “No.” I said it with all honesty.“What's wrong?” She asked, palming circles on my back. “The baby?... Stress?... Both?”I heaved a sigh. “I wish.”“Then what is it?” she asked. Then she paused before she continued. “Is it Lachlan?”I felt my heart skip
